What is Laser Therapy?
We are pleased to bring you new service at our clinic using Low Intensity Laser Therapy along with Massage Therapy, Shiatsu Therapy and Reflexology. We are using the MediTech-BioFlex LILT which is a highly advanced machine in the Laser Therapy industry. This is based on 15 years of scientific research and extensive clinical experience.
Laser therapy is the use of monochromatic light emission from a low intensity laser diode or an array of high intensity Super Luminous diodes to treat musculoskeletal injuries, chronic and degenerative conditions and to heal wounds.
The light source is placed in contact with the skin allowing the photon energy to penetrate tissue, where it interacts with various intracellular biomolecules resulting in the restoration of normal cell function and enhancement of the body's healing process.
EFFECTS OF LIGHTS ON CELL:
- Production and release of beta-endorphin (inhibits the sensation of pain)
- Cortisol production is increased (enable the body to combat the stress associated with trauma and disease)
- ATP production is increased (improve cellular metabolism)
- Immune system is stimulated and lymphatic drainage improved.
- Stimulation of the healing process is accompanied by relief of symptoms.
